Games stop with loud tinkling chime

Of white ice cream truck

Creeping down long lane at dusk

Children run amok

Begging parents for some cash

Sweet tooth will not wait

Dash back to street waving hands

"Yea, we're not too late!"

Ice cream cones dipped in sprinkles

Chocolate push-ups

Banana splits with cherries

Tots get ice cream cups

Sundaes topped with smooth whip cream

Ice cream on a stick

Popsicles shaped like rockets

Which one will you pick?

Faces beaming all around

Cool sweets taste so grand

Melting treats have disappeared

Kids have sticky hands
